*hugs rose* Hello darling, how are you today?
2:27 am
grannyrose

doing well. it is father's day here. two of don's three remembered, and my youngest also. don was so pleased.
2:28 am
grannyrose

and you, sweetheart. have you have a good, bad, or indifferent night?
2:28 am
sprite

aw that is good. Tell him Happy Father's day from me as well :)
2:28 am
sprite

rather bad, alas. Ugly dreams. Am dead beat.
2:28 am
grannyrose

don says, ohhh, thank-you
2:29 am
sprite

:D
2:29 am
grannyrose

is today going to be busy for you? or can you relax and recover?
2:30 am
sprite

am making it a slow day. Got dishes to wash, dog to walk and laundry to do. I might ask one of the kids to do the dog.
2:31 am
grannyrose

we have spent this afternoon watching a down-load don did of robin williams in the actors studio. it was hilarious. it took nearly 15 minutes before the compere could ask his first question.
2:31 am
sprite

roflol that is so wonderful!
2:31 am
grannyrose

sounds like a good plan, sprite. and take your time to do the dishes.
2:31 am
grannyrose

have you seen that particular episode?
2:31 am
sprite

yes, I did the cooking last night so it isn't a mess, thank God.
2:32 am
grannyrose

strange that! when the woman does the cooking the me4 is less.
2:33 am
sprite

because we clean what we use, throw away the wrappers and stow away the herbs etc after use.
2:33 am
grannyrose

what a lovely evening/morning yesterday when we all were he4. it was such fun.
2:33 am
sprite

our men, being male, focus on preparing the food and go blind for what happens around them.
2:34 am
sprite

wasn't it :D I was so happy our pug was safe and sound. Can't wait to hear the news.
2:34 am
grannyrose

lolol, my de4 old nanna always said...a good cook cleans up after themself.
2:35 am
grannyrose

you and me both, sprite.
2:35 am
sprite

well, most men's brains simply are not wired that way. They see what they focus on and not what is around that. While female brains focus less and see more around them.
2:36 am
grannyrose

* giggle * we even had ruby....what a treat! oh and worzel!!
2:36 am
sprite

just dear joso and crossy missing
2:36 am
grannyrose

and, and, and we had pink...hadn't seen her in a trillion years.
2:37 am
sprite

same. Pink, and Liz, and zooz. It was a good company.
2:37 am
grannyrose

with sir joso being so house-trained nowadays, and crossy in school...it might be a while before they will be he4 at the sa4 time as us again.
2:38 am
sprite

yes. Can't blame them for wanting to sleep, grin
2:38 am
grannyrose

how rude!! babble is miles more important than sleep....lol
2:39 am
sprite

lol!
2:41 am
grannyrose

hun, have had to re-start the magnesium tabs. overnight cramps again, and burn-ups. the half infusion isn't lasting the full week. i'm going to ask cardiologist on tuesday if i could have the full dose.
2:42 am
sprite

it is worth trying, if the cardiologist gives you the green light. Maybe our bodies burn up magnesium much faster than other people's bodies?
2:42 am
gapeach

Morning all. May I please have a clue for re5-10 the 1st Thanks much.
2:43 am

hi peach :)
2:43 am

2:43 am

Hi there sprite. How you doing?
2:43 am

2:49 am
grannyrose

ugh, no need to rub the salt in sprite...
2:50 am
sprite

*giggles* Rose, my dear friend, we wouldn't want you any other way.
2:50 am
grannyrose

i am so sorry, sprite. * grovelling, kissing toes*
2:51 am
sprite

That tickles!
2:51 am
grannyrose

* blows raspberries on sprites soles*
2:52 am
grannyrose

sorry, hun...should i trim the moustache??
2:52 am
sprite

omg that is evil!
2:52 am
grannyrose

not as evil as raspberries on the tummy...lolol....come he4 you...
2:53 am
sprite

am laughing so hard here!
2:53 am
grannyrose

*giggle* my job is done...i have blown the nasty dreams away....
2:54 am
sprite

sure did :D
2:55 am
sprite

just realised it has been ages since we had 'toea' in a grid. And 'etna' too, though not as long. Funny, that.
2:56 am
grannyrose

bite your tongue, or in this case, fingers. evil woman!! i always miss those wretched words...
2:57 am
sprite

I have given up spotting them a long time ago. I just enter them in every grid.
2:59 am
grannyrose

we really need jillibus back on-line to give us the heads up
3:00 am
sprite

so true. Our dear jilli.
3:00 am
grannyrose

i hope the book is worth it. hmmm must email her ....i think i owe her one.
3:00 am
sprite

which book?
3:01 am
grannyrose

she's writing a book about great danes.
3:01 am
sprite

oh wow. She is so multitalented, our jilli.
3:03 am
grannyrose

one of her loves, sprite
3:03 am
sprite

I know. She also made an amazing buste of one of them, have you ever seen it on her icon?
3:04 am
grannyrose

yes, i did sprite.
3:04 am
sprite

lovely, isn't it
3:05 am
grannyrose

i could never aspire to such a thing.
3:05 am
sprite

I love that woman. So active still at her age, and such an inspiration.
3:12 am
grannyrose

loverly grid, sprite? i enjoyed it, anyway. not too many weird words...
3:12 am
sprite

yes, it is indeed. Flying through it.
3:19 am
sprite

I'd say a toadame is a lady to4.
3:19 am
grannyrose

yup, absolutely...put it in the dictionary
3:19 am
sprite

:D
3:20 am
sprite

ok, done.
3:21 am
grannyrose

yay sprite....and so the dictionary grows...
3:22 am

I love it. So many great words collected already.

Good evening :)
3:22 am

*wonders* would ro4sot be the way home for a drunken person???
3:22 am
sprite

hi Liz :) *hug* for you and your husband.
3:22 am
grannyrose

g'day liz girl
3:22 am
Lizlin

Hugs to both of you.
3:23 am
sprite

how are you and yours, Liz?
3:24 am
Lizlin

We're well - busy day today - memorial service this afternoon, followed by a meeting. Just got home. It's cold and wet out but lovely indoors :)
3:24 am
sprite

fireflies
3:24 am
Lizlin

Hoping you're both well.
3:24 am
Lizlin

Congrats, Sprite
3:24 am
sprite

memorial service? Did I miss some bad news, Liz?
3:25 am
Lizlin

No - it's a Jewish tradition - a year after someone dies. This was the father of a friend.
3:25 am
sprite

and welcome home, where you can leave all cold and damp behind you :)
3:25 am
sprite

ah ok. What a lovely tradition.
3:26 am
Lizlin

It's nice because the person is remembered by family and friends - a bit more distant from the grief.
3:27 am
Lizlin

It's actually a "public" unveiling of the gravestone and is called a "Stonesetting"
3:27 am
sprite

yes, and it means there is support for the nearest survivors on that day too. Which is a tough day, especially the first year. And some people actually think or say here: "It's been a YEAR! Aren't you over it by now?"
3:28 am
Lizlin

And for my friend, it corresponded with Aussie father's day, which made it particularly poignant for her
3:28 am
sprite

am glad she had the support of her friends and family today.
3:28 am
grannyrose

WTG SPRITE!!
3:29 am
sprite

thanks :)
3:29 am
Lizlin

Hmmm! Quick first 100 for me. Slowed down now.
3:29 am
grannyrose

liz girl...so many beautiful ceremonies the christians left behind.
3:30 am
sprite

yeah it is a friendly grid today
3:30 am
grannyrose

good grief, sprite...i hope they don't say that.
3:31 am
sprite

I have to be off. A big *hug* to you both, and to your husband too, Liz. And one extra for Rose, cuz I have the feeling you need one :)
To all, a blessed day and a peaceful night.
3:31 am
grannyrose

enjoy your day, sprite. rest...and recover...xoxox
3:31 am
Lizlin

Hugs to you too Sprite - and an extra one for Rose.
3:31 am
Lizlin

Enjoy your day.
3:32 am
Lizlin

Have you had a tough day, rose?
3:32 am
sprite

some do, rose. Have heard it said about a friend of Cobi's and mine, who died way too young. People don't realise that you never really 'get over' losing someone very dear. It just gets more distant in time. Not necessarily easier though.
3:32 am
sprite

*poof*
3:32 am
Lizlin

Sadly, I've also heard that said.
3:35 am
grannyrose

liz, not particularly. my dad died 12 years ago...i do still miss him terribly. don's dad died a year later. still struggling with all the paperwork from centrelink.
3:35 am
Lizlin

Thought it might be paperwork! Like I said before, these places love paper - hate trees!
3:36 am
Lizlin

My mum died 26 years ago - miss her very much.
3:36 am
grannyrose

* giggle * liz...so true
3:38 am
grannyrose

you are one of the lucky ones then, liz. i only miss the concept of a mother, not the person who was my biological mother.
3:39 am
grannyrose

only one of my brothers misses her...but then i think his brain was affected by his birth.
3:40 am
Lizlin

Yes, i know i was very lucky. I feel cheated losing her so early.
3:40 am
Lizlin

She was 61.
3:41 am
grannyrose

i feel cheated with losing my dad. he was 75..awww liz girl...way too early
3:41 am
Lizlin

For both of us - and for them.
3:42 am
grannyrose

{{hugs}} liz girl. you are on my heart, de4.
3:42 am
Lizlin

Same, Rose :)

good morning
3:50 am
Lizlin

Hi and hugs, Ruby. Have you recovered from your visitor?
3:51 am
rubyfoo

yes, but my husband is sad and weepy but still has time to be nasty....
3:52 am
rubyfoo

My mother died before I came to France, and I miss her every day. But my father, who actually came to visit once when he was past 90 and with whom I wa very close, too, I think of, but not in the same,sad way I miss my mother
3:52 am
grannyrose

{{hugs}} ruby...please my de4...try and stand back...it is not your problem, de4.
3:52 am
Lizlin

It's tough for you, Ruby - sad about the nastiness but it's not down to you.
3:53 am
rubyfoo

This morning, just after he got finished telling me how much he loves e, he called me a lying b***h because I (gently) reminded him that he hadn't filled the birdfeeder.
3:53 am
grannyrose

burt's perspective is not your perspective...
3:53 am
Lizlin

My dad only died 4 years ago - I also miss him but not in the same way, which is strange because in many respects I was a "daddy's girl".
3:54 am
rubyfoo

me, too, liz. I was like the son he never had, did all the sports things with him. But my mother was my best friend. I was very lucky!
3:54 am
Lizlin

Mum became a best friend the more adult I became.
3:55 am
rubyfoo

same with me.
3:55 am
Lizlin

I'd've loved her to have met my hubby.
3:57 am
Lizlin

Taking a break. Hugs and have a good day. Rose, enjoy your evening :)
3:57 am
grannyrose

you two are so fortunate. my mother was a narcissistic parent.
3:57 am

{{liz}}
3:57 am
grannyrose

thanx, liz girl. enjoy your eveniong.
3:58 am
grannyrose

ugh * evening *
3:58 am

it makes a huge difference in your whole life. Burt's mother was passive-aggressive and he learned that behavior from her.
4:01 am
rubyfoo

how did you turn out to be so loving, rose?
4:07 am
grannyrose

ruby, my de4.....i decided very early on...not to be ever like my mother.
4:07 am
rubyfoo

that must have been very difficult but "brava" to Rosie for accomplishing it. Most don'tt
4:07 am
grannyrose

to this day...for me to wear a skirt or a dress....it has to be a major event...
4:08 am
grannyrose

xoxox ruby...you are such a wonderful friend.
4:09 am
rubyfoo

but not suc a good wife....
4:10 am
rubyfoo

such*
4:12 am
grannyrose

awww ruby...you are a good wife...it is the male part which lacks the skills, de4.
4:13 am
rubyfoo

I certainly can't make him happy any more
4:13 am
grannyrose

ruby, love...it would appear no-one can make him happy.
4:14 am
rubyfoo

thank you, Rosie, but it's very hard to see him so sad and not be able to help in an honest way.
4:15 am
grannyrose

ruby, love....you know, in your heart...you have tried everything...it is not your fault, hun.
4:17 am
rubyfoo

to change this awful subject, did you see my nudging abut the dog/spider video (found it in google). At least I got him to laugh
4:18 am
grannyrose

no, ruby...didn't see it. and don found a video of a kitten and a statue of a cat...very funny.
4:19 am
rubyfoo

look for the spider/dog one. I laughed 'til I cried
4:21 am
grannyrose

ruby...speaking of laughing until you cry...please google robin williams in " the actors studio "...a must see

We always think we are going to find a bargain.But my father finds it hard to walk and there are so many people there, he tends to just about look down to see where his feet are going and not enough attention on what is on the stalls..lol
4:45 am
zoozzoom

I am OK, Rose.Just a few niggly things in my head that is making me shun people more and more.Not in a spiteful way.Just do not like being around people..lol I will be OK
4:45 am

4:47 am

Well as you know I am not of the praying type.But I so appreciated your very kind helpful thoughts.Just being here when I feel like chatting is all I need :-)
4:48 am

I really am fine.When at home here or round parents I am me.Just when I have to go out on my own around people for some reason I feel threatened and vunerable..lol weird really.

5:46 am
crosshair

and now it is time for an early morning Vrossy tidbit of the day!!... In the news I noticed mention of a fella who's puppy was not feeling well, so he had to take him to the vet. Poor thing was a tad listless and he was off his feed a tad which was a bit of a concern since great danes eat like horses. Anyways, they get the puppy in for x-rays and what do they find?... 47 socks!! The dog, over time had eaten 47 socks!! So they made a small incision and one at a time removed each one and now the pooch is doing fine and eating the owner, who now keeps his socks out of reach, out of house and home once again.
5:46 am

6:03 am

6:04 am

maybe he will meet someone there and find a reason to do something with his life and get out on his own. Its nice you all are upgrading your life. Lots of luck to you all.
6:06 am
crosshair

yes, his compass needs a new direction. It is quite enjoyable and something the mrs and I should have done years ago, but life intervenes sometimes and we raised our son and saw him graduate high school first. Now it is our turn to do some things
6:06 am
puglet

Zoom is also back in school and not caring much for it but he's not quit and I also wish him the best as well. Not quiting is a big plus on anything
6:07 am

6:08 am
puglet

yes he is and he's finding it boring --lol Thats so great Crossy that you and your wife can do this. I wish you both all the best

MLFAN17

cross i am so jealous. every year in Iowa they have a big send off of hot air balloons
7:33 am
MLFAN17

sukee no you are afraid of falling
7:34 am
crosshair

Just remember, to put your mind at ease that if the operator messes up, he is going down with you:)
7:34 am
sukee

Yes, that is it :)
7:34 am
sukee

It's actually coming closer.
7:35 am
MLFAN17

is it two ma 8's?
7:35 am
crosshair

I read somewhere that the skin of a fully inflated hot air balloon can hold 800 pounds of water weight in morning dew condensation alone. As it burns off, the operator must make several adjustments
7:36 am
MLFAN17

i saw on a program once tow peopel sitting on the outside of a hot air balloon toasting with champagne
7:37 am
crosshair

that would be a precarious perch!
7:37 am
sukee

OK, not CTV. Looks like the call numbers of a radio station.
7:37 am
MLFAN17

you couldnt pay me to do something like that. it even showed them climbing up to get to the top of it
7:37 am

If I went up, I would be sitting on the floor of the basket :)

crosshair

After my last cancer I did bungee jumping, did the hot air balloon and flew in a bi-plane :)
7:39 am
crosshair

was for an hour
7:39 am
josephjames

the only trouble is the operater being there, i would think that would be awkward for romance
7:39 am
crosshair

ask him to turn around and look at the scenery for 15 minutes lol
7:39 am
MLFAN17

nice ride for an hour:)
7:40 am
MLFAN17

Bungee jumping.. NO thank you

7:53 am
crosshair

a regular submarine is fine though
7:53 am
MLFAN17

i am always afraid one of those would come apart while diving
7:53 am

7:54 am
MLFAN17

i dont swim cross
7:54 am
MLFAN17

7:56 am

7:56 am
crosshair

In vacation spots like Jamacia, they have tourist subs with large glass viewport and they run at 20-50 feet so you can see the sights. That is enough for me

Quote for the day: "My heart is afraid that it will have to suffer," the boy told the alchemist one night as they looked up at the moonless sky." Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself. And that no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of its dreams."

I love that book.

10:45 am

10:46 am
MimiCat

One of the (very) few benefits of aging is that when we have a history of success we tend to believe in ourselves more and worry less.
10:46 am

That's what I appreciated about Slingblade molly
10:57 am
MimiCat

The t-shirt I really want to make is one with the word "crap" on it with the red circle with the line drawn through it over the "crap." Since I've often said I've reached my crap quota for life, it would be appropriate.
10:57 am
MimiCat

Yes, Molly...to be concise as well as prophetic..an art.
10:58 am
MollyL

Ah, Slingblade. I am always emotionally wrung out after watching that movie. A classic.

I have found that no matter what the system, you have to tailor it to your likes and dislikes. And you want annoying? Try the stupid charms bar in 8.1. And there is no way to disable it.

Interesting... I have been using the Google Ad-block and Ad-Block Plus in conjunction with Stumble Upon and random web investigations for well over 6 years now. Up until the last year or two, the total ads blocked on a typical stumble Upon site has been 25-200, and accounts for banner ad, pop-up ads, as well as side-bar ads that vary every time you long on, depending on you internet surfing history. However, in the last 6 months I have seen the total of ads blocked per visit soar to over 500 junk ads per visit!! No wonder our computers bog down on us without ad protection!

HI ALL. ANY CLUES FOR THE 8S? just trying now to do some grid.
10:39 pm
mkg

is anyone there to give clues? need clues for the 8s please.
10:44 pm
mkg

hi all. it says 75 players are on line. anyone of you have any clues for the 8s? i dont have any of them yet.
10:45 pm
harpjane

hi mkg, sorry I was multi-tasking
10:46 pm
harpjane

both ma8's are plurals. think when you're name is in lights, it's on a ma7, and noodle around from there
10:47 pm
harpjane

Then think if a raccoon was born without spots on his eyes, she might go to a shop and buy a ma6 from a ma7
10:48 pm
harpjane

for sc7, pluralize a yiddish word, think how you would spread cheese on your bagel
10:49 pm
mkg

jane got the name in lights place and it is a 7. no S nearby. also the raccoon ma**** is a 6 and plural a 7. sorry.
10:49 pm
mkg

sc is indeed an 8. ty.
10:50 pm
harpjane

the person the raccoon BUYS the ma from is also ma7
10:51 pm
harpjane

on the other one, add a double letter to the end
10:51 pm
mkg

hmmm will search. ty.
10:51 pm
harpjane

ma7 has a double vowell, ma 8 has a double consonant
10:51 pm
harpjane

take me seriously when i say noodle around.
10:52 pm
mkg

ty jane. got ma the raccoon one. looking for other. ty.
10:53 pm
mkg

the name in lights clue: i am trying but if i put the double vowel at the end then no S is near. so i am confused.
10:54 pm
harpjane

ok, so put a double consonant on one, and a double vowel on the other one.....
10:54 pm
mkg

got it! double cons. not double vowel. super great.
10:54 pm
mkg

ty ty
10:55 pm
harpjane

there IS one with a double consonant on the end. Really there is!
10:55 pm
mkg

the 7 has the double vowel and the 8 has double cons.
10:55 pm
mkg

10:55 pm
mkg

ty
10:56 pm
harpjane

10:56 pm
harpjane

10:57 pm
mkg

well got all the 8s so i am in good shape.
10:57 pm
